I just tried this with 6.20 and it does update to the new name.
I made a INITIAL.EX file with the following entry:
N0AX BING WA
Then I worked N0AX on 20 meters, the initial exchange came up as
BING WA. I made the exchange DORK WA and logged the QSO. Then
I QSYed to 40 and entered N0AX, and it came up as DORK WA.
Apologies to N0AX.

Okay - I will make that work. If there are two entries after the number,
I will assume the second one is the QTH - like this:
ED WA 207 SNOOP IDA
